Important to Important People 2020 MEDIA KIT 685 Third Ave. Floor 10 New York, NY 10017 From the World Wars to the beer wars, advertising has always been the defining landmark of our cultural landscape. And if the economy is the engine of any society, then advertising is its fuel. From their first appearance in 1933 to their enduring presence on the American landscape, the Clydesdales symbolize Budweiser beer and America’s great industrial spirit. For the 2015 Grammys, Deutsch helped Target give more music to fans (instead of more commercials) when Imagine Dragons took the stage on a street in Las Vegas during a single four-minute commercial buy. The strategy was repeated in 2016 with a live music video for Gwen Stefani. Ad Age leads and fuels the industry responsible for shaping culture.
